- The 2027 Rogue E-Power model is the first model of this all-new version of one of Nissan’s best sellers.
- E-Power is the name of Nissan’s long-range EV hybrid powertrain.
- The electric motor drives the wheels, but the gas engine charges the battery.
Adios, 2026 Nissan Rogue hybrid—we barely knew you. Say hello to its much more interesting successor: the 2027 Rogue Hybrid E-Power.
Nissan plans to offer a hybrid version first before a regular gas model joins the lineup. But the E-Power model should be the right choice, as it offers an EV driving experience without any range concerns.

The 2027 Rogue Hybrid E-Power features a series hybrid powertrain. You have front and rear electric motors, which send power to the wheels. A small turbocharged three-cylinder engine powers a small battery pack, which helps keep the electric motor turning.
If the pack runs out of power, the gas engine can deliver power directly to the electric motor. And when the engine’s fuel tank runs low, you can simply refuel at the gas station.
The overall driving experience should feel like a pure EV. You just missed that little bit of anxiety. These long-range electric vehicles are the perfect bridge for those curious about switching from pure ICE vehicles to battery-powered vehicles.
Add to that the fact that the updated 2027 Rogue looks slightly better than the 2026 plug-in hybrid model, and Nissan might be on to a winner.

Motorcycle Pickup1: It’s a great platform for EREVs, and will prove to be a strong seller if gas prices don’t start falling fast enough for the car-shopping public.
